    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein can non-destructively determine current produce quality. An evaluation system can, at a first time, receive image data of produce and identify a type of the produce using machine learning techniques. The produce can be sent to an end-consumer retail environment. A quality assessment system can, at a second time, receive, from a user device in the retail environment, a request for a current quality of a particular produce that includes scanned data of that produce. The quality assessment system can identify that produce, retrieve, from a data store, machine learning trained models for identifying quality features of that produce, determine, based on applying the models to the scanned data, a current quality of that produce, and transmit, to the user device, the current quality. The produce's price can also be dynamically adjusted based on the current quality of that produce.

    Abstract: Presented herein are barrier film compositions that can be used, for example, as protective coatings for plant matter (e.g., agricultural products). In some embodiments, the compositions delay moisture loss and/or decrease respiration to extend the shelf life of the plant matter. In one embodiment, the barrier film composition comprises a first component comprising a charged long chain alkyl and a second component having an opposing charge. The barrier film composition can be used to prevent or delay spoilage due to, for instance, desiccation and ripening.
